Halt! Här får ingen passera,
här kommer ingen förbi.
Du kommer aldrig över nåt mera
så gå är du snäll om ditt liv är kärt.

Över taggtråden såg jag min livskamrat.
Susanne stå och gestikulera.
Jag har gått här i tjugo år snart
men med en K-pist är det svårt att diskutera.

Jag gick långsamt hemåt, hemåt den kvällen.
Skulle jag få se henne igen?
Hjärnan värkte, hjärtat värkte.
Skulle jag bli hel igen?

En dag så stod, så stod den bara där,
en mur mellan mej och den jag hade kär.
Vi bor två kvarter ifrån varann
men en grå prick är det enda jag ser av Susanne.

Vi skulle få leva här, vi skulle få leva här,
vi skulle få leva här, vi skulle få leva här.

Alla vackra rosor är våta
av blodet från ert heliga korståg.
Jag ska aldrig förlåta
det som hände vid muren.

Jag har tänkt jävligt mycket, mycket på att fly.
Jag vill se hennes kropp,
jag vill smeka hennes hy,
höra hennes stämma,
vara henne nära.
Jag ska viska i hennes öra.

Vi skulle få leva här...

Ja jag vet, jag vet precis hur,
jag flyger över eran mur.
Å jag vet, å jag vet,
jag vet precis hur.

"I´ll be the acid spy".
Jag gör vad jag vill.
Jag vet precis hur...

Vi skulle få leva här...

    Själva "muren" är självklart berlinmuren, men det är förmodligen bara en metafor för motgångar och problem med kärlek i allmänhet.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
